BartCop
WINGS OF JUSTICE AWARD WINNER
He was blogging against the right-wing deadheads before there were blogs. Yes, in 1996, the man called BartCop led the charge for democracy by beginning his own site, a combination of rant, humor, and idiosyncrasies (such as his fondness for poker).
No, BartCop is obviously not his real name. He has a day job he needs to keep in the Midwest, so he has posted under a pseudonym for 11 years now at BartCop.com.
BartCop, who we've met, refuses to be branded or fashionable. He just purveys his own brand of outrage, entertainment, and political irony. He started so long ago that his slogan is "a modem, a smart mouth and the truth." A modem?
Nothing will change BartCop. When the Internet was a vast wasteland of right-wing shills, Bart was out there pretty much alone, never pulling a punch.
No one will ever accuse Bart of being politically correct (he has a section called BartCop "hotties"
, but you got to love him for coming out swinging against the GOP jihad while the rest of us were just cursing at our television sets.
BartCop, for your perseverance and maintaining your own character in an age of branded ideas, you truly merit this week's BuzzFlash Wings of Justice Award.
